Frequently asked question about sign

  • What is the difference between SES, AES, and QES?

    Take the example of signing an employment contract.  

    • SES (Simple Electronic Signature) 
      A new employee ticks a box in an online form and types their name to acknowledge acceptance of the contract. This method is easy to use but offers minimal identity assurance. 

    • AES (Advanced Electronic Signature) 
      The employee logs into a secure HR portal with two-factor authentication and signs the contract using a cryptographic key linked to their account. This provides a higher level of integrity and identity verification. 

    • QES (Qualified Electronic Signature) 
      The employee signs the contract using a qualified certificate issued via itsme on their smartphone. Their identity has been verified in advance by a qualified trust service provider (QTSP), and the signature is legally equivalent to a handwritten one under EU law. 

  • Does it work outside Belgium? Will it still be considered as a QES?

    Yes. eIDAS grants mutual recognition of QES across all EU member states. So if you sign with itsme’s qualified certificate, it remains a QES legally recognized in other countries 

  • Is itsme secure? Why should I trust itsme?

    itsme meets high security and regulatory standards including: 

    • Identity provider with EU eIDAS Level of Assurance High 

    • Recognized under eIDAS as a Qualified Trust Service Provider. 

    • ISO 27001 certified and audited regularly; logs and incidents are centrally monitored and retained per compliance rules . 

    • All signature operations use cryptographic keys stored in secure hardware with robust certificate validation and timestamping. 

    • Compliant with GDPR, AML, and PSD2 directives 

  • Can I use itsme QES for official or legal documents?

    Absolutely. QES with itsme is legally equivalent to a handwritten signature for all eIDAS-eligible documents. In Belgium, certain documents—like employment contracts or notarial acts—require QES, which itsme supports. 

  • Can I revoke a signed document with itsme QES?

    No, you cannot revoke a QES once applied, as it permanently embeds your qualified certificate and timestamp. However: 

    You can revoke the certificate if your itsme account is blocked or compromised, stopping future QES creation  

    This doesn’t retract or alter previous signatures but prevents further misuse. 

     

  • Where is my personal data stored?

    Data resides within Belgian Mobile ID (BMID) data centers, secured and operated under ISO 27001. 

    Logs are kept for at least 1 year; transaction records are archived for 10 years to meet legal audit and validation requirements  

    When external services are used, the storage location remains within the EU and subject to Belgian/EU data protection laws. 

  • How much does itsme Sign cost?

    itsme Sign is available as a qualified electronic signature (QES) across various document and electronic signature platforms. Pricing options vary based on the size of the organization. We offer small, medium and large packages, or tailored to your specific needs. For detailed pricing information, please refer to the price table available on here.

  • What kind of e-signatures are there? Do they all have the same value?

    Unlike signing on paper, there are several ways to sign online and not all benefit from the same level of security or have the same legal value.

    eIDAS defines three types of electronic signatures: simple electronic signature, advanced electronic signature (adES), and Qualified Electronic Signature (QES). This last one is the signature with the highest level of security. It is also the only electronic signature type to have special legal status in EU member states, and the burden of proof rests on the one disputing it.

  • When do I need a qualified signature?

    According to the eIDAS regulations, electronic signatures hold legal validity for all business documents in the EU. However, specific cases require a Qualified Electronic Signature (QES). Such cases include employment contracts and certain business documents like the transfer of registered shares or bonds, as well as shares registration in relevant registers. Additionally, tax returns and applications that are submitted to authorities must also be accompanied by a QES. This requirement extends to consumer and credit agreements as well. Even rental agreements fall under the scope of requiring a QES for validation purposes.

    It is recommended to be on the side of caution and ensure maximum protection by using a QES for all document types. The level of security provided by a QES is unmatched.

  • Does itsme offer seals?

    At this moment itsme only supports signatures by natural persons. itsme does not support seals by legal persons.

  • Is itsme free for end-users?

    Certainly! All citizens residing in countries where itsme is available have the option to freely download the itsme app from the App Store, Google Play Store. See here all the available countries.
